The day was Friday and I was back at my task. My patch of Earth to clear was almost finished, I had about a third or so left to go; and, as always, I was ready to go. Over the following hours, I made decent progress, sufficient enough to see the entire patch cleared at midday.
However, there still remained a few weeds here and there that I would need to go back to and pull out, the very annoying, laborious type of work, and so I spent the next hour doing so. I made a bit of progress, but much more scrutinizing the plot will have to be done before compost can be added and we commence in planting.
It was a nice couple of hours spent getting my hands dirty and doing some physical labour. I found that my technique had improved and also that I was able to retain more soil from the roots into the bed. I could tell that the soil at this moment, was quite poor and needed a lot of working before planting. I am excited to see it when we finally do plant and I believe I will be coming back after the May 8th deadline to watch and help.
